IrelandThe British & Irish Lions rugby team, managed by a Dublin-based company, achieved record financial performance after their successful tour of Australia in 2025. The organization reported a profit of £13 million on total revenue of £50.5 million, significantly higher than previous tours. This included £15 million distributed to the national rugby unions of Ireland, England, Scotland, and Wales. Revenue came from sponsorships, broadcasting rights, merchandise sales, and ticket sales, with over 450,000 attendees across nine matches. The tour also contributed to Rugby Australia's profitability. Administrative costs rose sharply, but the company remains profitable overall.
